    Default Who uses Prinergy EVO?

    Hi, I'm looking for some information about which kind of shops/businesses actually use Prinergy EVO.

    I'd like to talk to some companies with current practical experience of the system.

    Thanks, Ben

    We've been using EVO since 2005. It's a great system. My understanding is that it's just Prinergy without the job database.

    We're a commercial offset shop running 20-micron Staccatto imaged on a rebuilt Trendsetter. EVO makes plates for the four presses we run, ranging from an old Multilith (which prints Staccatto just fine!) to a 29" Heidelberg. It's very stable and flexible.

    And can I ask what kind of business you are? Newspaper, small printer, etc.?

    Added it to my prior post. Commercial offset, ranging from business forms to 4-color agency work. Evo's a dead stable RIP, very full-featured and easy to use.

    Actually, when we first installed it, it was making 1-bit TIFFs for an old filmsetter. Never let me down in that capacity either. Just a dream upgrade from our previous CT/LW system.

    we've been using it here for a few years now. commercial print, three 40" heidelbergs from 4 color to 8 color, plus a few smaller presses. Its a good workflow. If you have more than a couple of operators, its worthwhile to double up on the common JTP licenses (RIP, TRAP, Low res print) so your jobs don't queue up. The system is also very easy to install and set up. After a couple of years I ditched the POS server that Kodak makes you buy with it and installed it on a new top of the line Dell. Much faster.
